Que tal:
Deseo aportar éste código fuente para crear un bonito efecto para nuestras aplicaciones, en mac osx al iniciar sesión si ingresamos la contraseña incorrecta la ventana de login se sacude, bueno he creado algo similar para nuestras ventanas en vb.net, podemos sacudir la ventana en forma horizontal o vertical y así simular el efecto descrito, espero les guste, saludos:
